Hi Folks: Developing on XP Home, VS 2008 Pro, C++, WIN32 no MFC. Service Pack 1 has been applied to VS 2008, but no other patches. I'm reasonably pleased with VS 2008, but it has a few "Features" I haven't figured out. Every once in a while I'll try to open a window, like Output, Call Stack or Solution Explorer, and it won't display. Close examination will show an edge of the desired window peeking out from an edge of the desktop, and grabbing that edge will allow me to pull the window into view. When I click on "View" in the menu bar and "Solution Explorer" in the drop down, nothing pops up in any visible part of the desktop or the Visual Studio window. For those unfamiliar with VS 2008, the Solution Explorer is the window that displays all of the source and header files in the projects of the solution for the user to select as a file to be edited. It's kind of important, and without it I have to go through some convoluted actions to edit the file I want. Any idea about how to get the Solution Explorer to display? Thanks Larry |
